Lines: 19 A friend of mine has an IBM clone (not sure of the brand). He had his system working fine. He has 2 hard drives and one floppy. He turned off his system, then turned it back on at a later time and when he booted up the system didn't recognize the hard drives, either one of them. The floppy worked fine. If anyone could give me a idea of where to look or suggest, I would appreciate it. All I could think of is somehow his CMOS configuration got messed up or his hard drive controller screwed up. Anything else? Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.
